Overview

About

Maintained by Pedro BaltazarFirst published 2026-06-091 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Provides convenience utilities for using 'DuckDB' directly over datasets stored in 'Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2' (ADLS Gen2, 'abfss://'). Opens connections configured for Azure-backed 'Delta Lake' and 'Parquet' data, registers Azure credentials as 'DuckDB' secrets, and supports optional repository mirrors for restricted networks. Integrates well with 'DBI' for SQL workflows and with 'dplyr' and 'dbplyr' for lazy table queries.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-quak

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-quak

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-quak

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
